31 MELBOURNE AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blackpool local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 31 MELBOURNE AVENUE sales from April 2000 and October 2006 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the April 2000 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the October 2006 sale, where it falls to 62% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 62% below the HPI.
